I'm an audiovisual thinker: I usually think in verbal monologue with hazy pictures. A WEIRDLY GREAT sleep aid for me is, as I monologue, I force myself not to think in mental images. All as I maintain a separate mental image of, like, a grove. It slows my thinking.
Try it if we have similar brains!

The thumbnail of this peculiar new blog post might make it look like Columbo is using his dog as a machine gun to shoot at genders, but actually, the dog is shooting them out.

The Feminine, Masculine, And/Or Nonbinarinine Within? · Joi Massat
What can a probing search through Detective Columbo's psyche teach me about gender roles? The answer is probably "nothing" but let's find out.

I'm on strike now with other ALTs (Assistant Language Teachers) working in Kyoto Prefecture High Schools via the dispatch company ALTIA CENTRAL. Our salaries, low at 240,000 yen per month, were cut this year to 210,000, and we can't sustain our lives anymore.

Talk of anti-foreigner discrimination in Japan is big lately. But we need to focus on stuff like this: There's 600k Viets in Japan, but the only signs in Vietnamese anywhere in public spaces are warning against crimes. Helpful signs are rarely translated, only threatening posters

Question for Golden Age Comics to #PublicDomain people - King, United, and NEA made weekly compilations to "secure the copyright" of their comic strips.
I rarely find comic strips pre-1963 in copyright renewal records. Are single strips renewed via these compilations or are they contributions only
